I got stuck in bed a few months ago with a stage II, but thankfully after getting some advice from you guys and using bag balm I was able to get back into my chair a couple of weeks later.
They wanted me to come in so they could evaluate the wound and I told them not only no, but hell no. It just didn't make sense for me to have to go into the doctor to get evaluated when I have a telecom nurse the table to see the wound if I had someone position the camera correctly. If it didn't improve that I might have gone in, but thankfully mine responded almost immediately to the bag balm. Now I'm a true believer in that age-old remedy. Good luck on getting through your troubles right now.
